Guest guest Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Hi. I have heard of this as a side effect from having implants, but has anyone had this post explantation? I am almost 4 weeks post, and have noticed a swollen vein that runs under my breast all the way down my ribcage. It is tender to the touch, and painful when I lift my left arm. It is only on my left breast, not my right. I think it is a Mondor's cord, but not sure. Thanks! Cristina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
